Typical anti-acne creams are packed with harsh chemicals. On the other hand, tried and tested natural ingredients generally produce minimal or no side effects when used properly. If you’ve got acne, chances are that your skin needs something better than a bunch of chemicals. Something that tackles the problem at the root level. One among these Ayurvedic herbs for acne might just be your ultimate solution.

6 Ayurvedic Herbs for Acne Worth Trying

1. Aloe Vera: The Wonder Herb For Skin

This wonder herb is certainly among the best natural skin care ingredients. Aloe Vera soothes, hydrates, cools and cleanses dirt from the skin. It has powerful anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and anti-fungal properties. It also relieves the itchiness and irritation that come with acne. Apply pure Aloe gel on your skin regularly to remove pimples as well as the scars and redness it leaves behind.

2. Neem Is A Powerful Cleanser.

Neem is another powerful Ayurvedic medicine for pimples. It works by purifying blood, thus cleansing your skin from within. This herb is excellent at eliminating bacteria. It has many other acne-curing properties – it’s antiseptic, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant too. Boil a handful of Neem leaves in a cup of water. After the water takes the colour of the leaves, strain it into a cup and drink it when cool.

3. Turmeric Fights Inflammation.

Turmeric is a common Asian spice with a ton of health benefits apart from being an effective Ayurvedic pimple treatment. It is valued for its powerful ability to heal inflammation and infection. This herb is loaded with antioxidants that improve the quality of skin. Moreover, turmeric can also lighten blemishes. It’s easy to use – mix a teaspoon of turmeric with half the quantity of raw honey. Massage this paste onto your skin and just wash it off with water after around 15 minutes.

4. Tea Tree Makes Acne Vanish.

Next on our list of Ayurvedic herbs for acne is this popular antimicrobial ingredient. Tea tree is extensively used to heal wounds and skin conditions. It reduces inflammation as well as thoroughly disinfects and cleanses the skin. Moreover, Tea tree has a wonderfully soothing effect. Add 3 drops of Tea tree oil to a quarter cup of clean water. Pour it into a spray bottle and spray it on your skin.

5. Mint Soothes And Refreshes The Skin.

With its cooling, refreshing and cleansing qualities, mint is a great herb to include in your Ayurvedic pimple treatment plan. Mint causes dead skin cells to shed more easily, and scars to fade more quickly. The menthol in its leaves fights bacteria. And if your acne is a result of Pitta aggravation, this is the herb for you. Rinse a handful of mint leaves well with clean water and then add them to a blender. Let them form a thick and even paste. Then, simply massage it onto your skin.

6. Shatavari Balances Female Hormones.

Hormones lie at the root of many women’s skin woes. If that applies to you, ask your doc if Shatavari could heal your pimples. Shatavari has earned high value among the Ayurvedic herbs for acne since it rejuvenates the female reproductive system, brings about balance in hormones, reduces stress, and can give skin a healthy glow. You can take Shatavari pills as per your doctor’s prescription.

 

In addition to using herbal remedies, check if there are parts of your diet and lifestyle that need tweaking. Ayurveda always recommends eating natural and wholesome food, getting enough exercise with activities like yoga, and making sure you get sound sleep. This keeps your stress levels low, energy levels high, body healthy, and skin beautiful.

 

Note: It’s best recommended to take herbs after a proper consultation with your doctor to avoid adverse effects.
